Safe Ride News Publications provides resources that CPS Technicians can use toward recertification. By subscribing and reading the Safe Ride News newsletter and/or reading a current LATCH Manual or School Bus Safety Handbook (and taking a quiz), technicians can earn some of the six CEUs required for recertification.

Note: CPSTs are responsible for keeping their own records in case of audit.
